Maya cried and cursed, "you are so evil Cindy. Is it a crime to become your friend? How could you burn my beautiful skin?"A few people had already begun to gather around so Cindy became upset and replied, "shut up you pretentious bitch. No one is going to buy your act."The staff who had handed the cup of coffee to Cindy interrupted her and said, "that is enough Miss Cindy. I have never seen someone who is as vicious as you are. All miss Maya did was thank you for accepting her hand of friendship but you splashed your coffee on her despite knowing that it is very hot. I think we should call the police right away. You are not going to get away with it."Maya stopped the staff while still lying on the floor and said, "no, there's no need for you to call the police. No matter what, I consider Cindy my friend. She is very special to Jack so how can I bear to get her arrested?"Cindy was hoping that Jack would say something as what mattered to her the most was what he thought. However, Ja
Cindy smiled bitterly and replied, "even now Jack, you still don't trust me. I can't let you hurt me anymore, it's over."After speaking, Cindy turned her back to Jack once again to leave but he held her hand tightly and refused to let go.While Cindy was trying to free her hand from Jack's, the staff who had earlier accused her of pouring the hot coffee on Maya ran to them and said, "Mr. Jack, miss Maya just fainted. Please come, we need to rush her to the hospital." Jack stared at the staff and back at Cindy. He felt torn. He didn't want to leave Maya in such a condition but also couldn't afford to let Cindy go.He still held on to Cindy's hand while trying to decide on what to do, however, Cindy pulled her hand away from his with as much force as she could and said,"You can forget about me, Jack. Go to your precious Maya. I'm sure she needs you more."Jack stood watching as Cindy walked away and headed for the road. He watched Cindy until she was out of his view before going back
When her tears had been spent, Cindy left her house and locked her door. She consoled herself with the fact that despite her broken heart, she was going to derive so much joy from giving little Tim the wonderful surprise of her presence.As Jack drove Maya to the hospital, she lay in the back seat of his car with her eyes closed but her heart was filled with so much happiness.Earlier, when she had seen the interaction between Cindy and Jack and how they seemed inseparable, she had doubted if her plan would pull through. After her last plan ended up bringing them closer, she had feared that Jack now had absolute trust in Cindy and would believe whatever she said but what happened convinced her that her fears had been in vain.Her screams hadn't been fake though because when the hot coffee had touched her skin, the pain she had experienced had been nothing short of excruciating.She had especially told the staff to make sure that the coffee was very hot and had paid him enough money t
Jack arrived at Cindy's house and noticed that it was locked, he tried to call her once more but he realized that his number was still blacklisted so he decided to wait for her outside her house.Cindy stood in front of the hospital with her luggage. She was excited to meet little Tim because she hadn't seen him in a long time. However, when she got to his ward, she realized it was empty.She quickly took out her phone and was about to dial his number when she felt someone tap her on the back. She turned and saw Tim standing in front of her. Seeing him looking so much better and brighter as opposed to his usual pale expression made Cindy emotional and she suddenly began to cry.They both hugged each other for a long time before going into his hospital room. The room was very beautiful and a whole lot better than the one he used back in London.Realizing that Jack had made all these arrangements for Tim made Cindy remember him and everything that happened. She was very grateful to Jack
After waiting in his car for Cindy throughout the night, Jack was exhausted in the morning. At first, he thought he might have slept off and missed her in the process but when he saw that her door was still locked, he became really sad and worried.Where could Cindy have slept? He knew that she was quite thrifty so he ruled out the possibility of her sleeping in a hotel. So where could she have gone to? He knew that she could take care of herself but in the end, she was still a woman. He hoped she had not gotten into any form of trouble.He called his assistant and asked him to buy a new phone and sim card for him. He had no desire to do any kind of work so he went to his house and after bathing, lay on his bed sadly.He heard his doorbell ring and thought that his assistant had arrived with the phone and Sim card. He is efficient, Jack thought as he opened the door in a haste.However, he was shocked and disappointed when he saw Maya in front of him. "Why do you look so sad Jack, May
The moment Cindy picked up his call, Jack said, "please tell me you are alright, my sweet Cindy. I waited in front of your house throughout the night but you never came back. I have been so worried about you. I miss you and I love you so much. Please don't break my heart, Cindy."Cindy sighed and replied, "I'm doing fine Jack, please stop trying to reach me. I have left London and I meant what I said. I am sorry that our love wasn't enough to keep the relationship, take care."After ending the call, Cindy switched off her phone because she didn't want Jack to call her anymore. He kept reminding her of what she wanted to forget and it only made her sad."She threw the phone back on the bed and noticed that Tim was staring at her. After a while, he asked, "Jack is your boss right?"Cindy nodded her head and Tim continued. "I won't bother to ask you if you love him because I can tell that you do but why did you break up with him if you knew it would make you this sad? Doesn't he love you
When Cindy hung up on him, Jack sat down weakly on the chair. Everything felt like a dream to him. No, it couldn't be. He wasn't going to accept it. How could Cindy break up with him? Where had he gone wrong? All he had tried to do was to help her be a better person, how could she be so cruel to him?He unlocked his phone and began to stare at Cindy's picture. Despair washed over him as he finally realized that he had lost the love of his life. He slowly lay down on the floor as a tear seeped out of the corner of one of his eyes.He sat upright when an idea came to him. Cindy had people she liked and could listen to and Tim was one of them. If he could convince Tim to talk to Cindy, would she change her mind? There was also Spencer. Cindy was fond of his brother and might listen to him.He decided that since Cindy had just shunned him over the phone, it wouldn't be a good idea for him to ask these two people to call her today. He would wait until tomorrow before asking them for help.
"But what if you are wrong?" Tim asked. "What if Jack is the right one and I've been doing so much to sabotage your relationship but I always pretend to be a saint before you who cannot hurt a fly?Your refusal to believe Jack over me stems from the fact that I have won your trust over the years. You think you know me but what you know is what I have made you believe.If you walk in and see me hurt and all evidence points to Jack, you might also end up taking my side and seeing Jack as the culprit. That doesn't mean you don't trust him. It just means that you trust me more than you trust him.And that's a given, considering the fact that you have known me for much longer and I've never done anything to make you doubt my loyalty and love for you.You wouldn't want Jack to leave you for taking my side. The best thing that could happen is for Jack to expose me. It wouldn't be easy but if he were to show you my true colors, you would never take my side again and in the future, you would a
